126. I am using the average match returned from the simulation..
Edited on Thu Apr-07-05 11:42 AM by TruthIsAll
and dividing it by 1900 to produce a sensitivity table of
probabilities that the number of matches would be greater than
N.
We are interested in the probability of getting at least N=14
matches, given the probability returned from the simulation.

For example:
If the average simulation match is 6 (prob =6/1900),
then the prob of getting 14 or more matches is:
0.36%	= 1-BINOMDIST(13,1900,6/1900,TRUE)

If the average simulation match is 8 (prob =8/1900),
then the prob of getting 14 or more matches is:
3.39%	= 1-BINOMDIST(13,1900,8/1900,TRUE)
